The mean of $n$ values of a distribution is $\bar{x}$. If the first value is increased by $1$,the second value by $2$,and so on,what will be the mean of the new values?

  • A
    $\bar{x} + n$
  • B
    $\bar{x} + n/2$
  • C
    $\bar{x} + \left( \frac{n + 1}{2} \right)$
  • D
    None of these

Let $a, b \in R$. Let the mean and the variance of $6$ observations $-3, 4, 7, -6, a, b$ be $2$ and $23$,respectively. The mean deviation about the mean of these $6$ observations is:

Consider the following frequency distribution:
Value $4$ $5$ $8$ $9$ $6$ $12$ $11$
Frequency $5$ $f_1$ $f_2$ $2$ $1$ $1$ $3$

Suppose that the sum of the frequencies is $19$ and the median of this frequency distribution is $6$. For the given frequency distribution,let $\alpha$ denote the mean deviation about the mean,$\beta$ denote the mean deviation about the median,and $\sigma^2$ denote the variance. Match each entry in List-$I$ to the correct entry in List-$II$ and choose the correct option.
List-$I$ List-$II$
$(P) \ 7f_1+9f_2$ is equal to $(1) \ 146$
$(Q) \ 19\alpha$ is equal to $(2) \ 47$
$(R) \ 19\beta$ is equal to $(3) \ 48$
$(S) \ 19\sigma^2$ is equal to $(4) \ 145$
$(5) \ 55$

The mean and standard deviation of $100$ observations were calculated as $40$ and $5.1$ respectively. Later on,it was found that one of the observations was taken as $50$ in place of $40$. If the wrong entry is replaced by the correct one,then the sum of the squares of all the observations is:

The mean and standard deviation of $20$ observations are found to be $10$ and $2$ respectively. On rechecking,it was found that an observation $8$ was incorrect. Calculate the correct mean and standard deviation if the wrong item is omitted.
